Frequently Asked Questions

Registration for LEP workshops is now available online! Click on the Registration button and sign-in via CareerCentral to select the workshop you would like to attend. You will need your Western username and password to sign-in to Career Central. You will find the LEP Workshops listed under the "Leadership" tab. You can view the workshops offered in calendar view or list view.

Students who are no longer able to attend a workshop after registering must cancel their registration. To de-register, sign in to the Registration page. Failure to do so on 2 separate occasions may result in your removal from the Leadership Education Program for the duration of the current academic year.

Once a student has attended a particular workshop, we will upload the attendance to Career Central within 5 business days. If after 5 business days, you still are not marked as attended, you can follow up with us by emailing lep@uwo.ca.

The minimum 20 volunteer hours for completion of Tier Three should come from the one area outlined in the submitted Service Learning action plan. The LEP team must approve the action plan before the credited volunteer hours can begin.

Letters of Accomplishment for first term will be available by January. Letters of Accomplishment for second term will be available at the beginning of the summer. All Letters of Accomplishment will be available ONLINE, via CareerCentral. Students will receive an email with downloading instructions when the letters have been uploaded to CareerCentral.

Participation in the Leadership Education Program is a valuable demonstration of your initiative to develop leadership skills for University and beyond! We encourage students to use Western's Co-Curricular Record (WCCR) to add their LEP accomplishments to their portfolio. Click here to learn more about the WCCR. Note: Students must complete an entire tier in order to add LEP to their WCCR activities. WCCR credit will not be given for participation in individual workshops.

You can check periodically to see if spots for that workshop (and others) have opened. It is also important to note that each term, a new schedule for LEP is produced. You can also show up to a "full" workshop and ask the faciltator if they feel there is enough room for you to participate. The facilitator may allow you to stay for the workshop if there is extra space. If there is enough space for you to stay, you must ensure that you add your name to the Attendance Sheet. You must be added to the bottom of the attendance sheet (and print clearly) in order to receive credit for attending the workshop.
